[[Snake's Blood]
- High resistance to abnormal status: Bleeding.]
It was a perfect item for magicians.
"Not bad."
It was the first item that Ur, who had declared that he would rather wear rags than use sothing unworthy of his status, took a liking to.
Next were the ring and the coffin.
Both were Abominations.
As expected, both were items that had a lot of Intelligence.
And naturally, Ur took them. While Jamad and Seol needed various stages, Ur required high Intelligence.
As Ur equipped the two Abominations, ssages started to pop up.
[You currently have 7 Abominations equipped.]
[All of your stats increase by 10.]
[All of your skills have their mana costs decreased by 10%.]

[All of your stats increase by 20.]
[Shadow Space increases by 30%.]
[Your reward acquisition has been increased by 50%.]
[The probability of a reward’s rank increasing increases by 20%.]
'Huh…?'
The seventh ssage didn't leave much of an impression on him, but the eighth made his eyes widen.
What Seol needed the most right now was high-quality equipnt, and these were quite good.
'But still, I got two Abominations.'
Thanks to the Pitch Black's Seal, he received double the stats. Ur's stats had probably increased significantly, too.
Now, only the final reward remained.
Seol checked the information of the black energy.

Swoosh…
Although he didn't say a sword, the black energy seeped into Ur's wrist.
Forming a round ring, it disappeared into Ur's sleeve.
Ur grinned and checked if there was anything else, and then he disappeared the way he had co.
"…"
Seol, who was left alone, decided to treat everything that had just happened as a dream and checked all the titles he had gained this ti.

'There's a lot…'
A lot of ti had passed, and he had gone through a lot of hardship.
The title he liked the most was Finisher.
'For the ti being, I want to avoid things like great journeys…'
- Woah…
- Is he checking the rewards for a raid or sothing?
- Raid (1 person)
- (Hard)
- (While eating ramyeon)
Seol looked at the box next to the Pitch Black Treasure that the old Dragon had given to him.
'This is for later.'
Tansia and Karen had co out of the bath, so there was no need to check it now.
Checking rewards next to Tansia could lead to trouble.
"Clean!"
As Tansia said with a dazed expression, Karen added.
"At tis like this, you should say refreshing."
"Refreshing?"
"Yes. Or… Hmm… Oof… Nice."
Jamad said while hitting his forehead.
"What are you trying to teach the kid…?"
"That's what everyone said when I was her age."
"Don't spread your unfortunate childhood."
"Is that so…?"
Seol smiled warmly while looking at them, and then his eyes suddenly widened.
He had realized sothing.
'I'm screwed…'
Only now did he realize it
'Co to think of it, Tansia needs equipnt, too.'
He still had a long way to go.
* * *
The next day, they stood in the station.
"I'm excited!"
"Are you excited?"
"Yes! Moving steel!"
"Steel! Woah…!"
"Woah! Cool!"
As Tansia cheerfully muttered, everyone looked at her with warm expressions.
The truth was that everyone was equally excited.
'Who would have thought that I would be able to ride a train here too.'
Seol had booked the most expensive seats on Castrang—no, rather than seats, he had almost booked an entire train car.
"Oh…"
"Ah…"
Seol's expression changed.
That woman had appeared again.
The woman he had bumped into on the street and encountered at the inn.
At this unbelievable encounter, the guard stepped forward.
"Why are you following us?"
"Our paths just happened to cross…"
"Who would believe that?"
"That's enough. It can happen."
Although she said that, her sharp gaze was still directed at Seol.
"I hope we don't et again…"
"I'll try my best."
Choo-choo!
At that mont, Castrang entered the station with the station with a whistle.
Tss…
Tss…
Pshuuu…
"Moving steel!"
"It really moves…"
Even though they had witnessed even the Large Soldiers, the dreams and hopes that the train brought made their hearts flutter.
"I'll be checking the tickets!"
Castrang’s station staff checked Seol's tickets and many others.
"Hohoho…"
"Haha! Welco. Let guide you to your seat."
The expression of the staff who checked the woman's ticket next to them brightened. It seed the woman had a special status.
'She even has guards, so I guess it makes sense.'
Honestly, Seol didn't care at all. She just hoped they would pass by quietly.
"Please, show your ticket."
Another staff mber approached him.
When Seol showed his ticket, his expression changed.
"Hmm…?"
It was the most expensive ticket.
It cost as much as a commoner's yearly living expenses. It wasn't sothing an ordinary-looking group like Seol’s could casually present.
Not only that but their group was dressed like wandering adventurers. They weren't dressed like people from the Federation.
"Do you have anything that can prove your identity…?"
"Identity?"
"Yes, there have been suspicious movents recently around Castrang…"
Karuna stepped forward.
"Are you saying our master is one of those suspicious people?"
"Ah, no… What I an is…"
While saying that, the staff mber prepared to signal the station.
Seol gently stopped Karuna and took out a symbol that was effective in such situations.
Swoosh…
The staff mber's eyes widened as he examined the symbol.
"Th-This…"
"Does this confirm it?"
"Y-Yes! My apologies! Have a pleasant journey!"
Seol had shown the symbol of the Zodiac, more specifically, the one of Libra.
It was only natural for the staff mber to be flustered. The wandering magician was, in reality, a magician.
No, if he thought about it, magicians were eccentric, so it made sense for him to dress like that.
The woman who had boarded the train earlier was talking to the staff.
"How noisy. Didn't they have tickets?"
"Ah, I'll check it."
The man who had been accompanying the woman hurriedly ca over after hearing the news from the staff who had checked Seol's ticket.
"Oh, dear… That…"
"It seems they didn't have any tickets."
"No. It's just that… They seem to be magicians from the Zodiac."
"That makes s… What?"
Suddenly, the woman's expression stiffened.
"What?"
"They seem to be related to Libra."
"If it's Libra… Are you talking about the Tower where Frannan resides as the Aspect Magician?"
The man scratched his head and replied.
"Haha… Yes… it seems so…"
"Oh no…"
"Is there sothing wrong?"
"N-No. It's nothing… Are we departing soon?"
"Yes. Then, have a pleasant journey. Thank you for using Castrang."
"…"
The woman fell into thought.
This was far from a pleasant journey.
"Silvia, you look troubled. Is there any problem…?"
Only the guard Albert and the noble Silvia were left in the train car.
"That man earlier…"
"Ah! He was disrespectful, right? Shall I take care of him?"
Silvia sighed.
"He seems to be related to Frannan."
"Frannan? Who is…"
Albert's expression stiffened even more than Silvia's earlier. It was clear that she was more skilled at managing her expression.
"Didn't we send a research cooperation request there a few months ago…?"
"Yes…"
"There were also so talks about technology transfer too…"
"It hasn't been decided, but yes."
"I heard it was quite an important contract…"
"Albert, are you teasing ?"
Heup…
Albert covered his mouth for a mont, then tilted his head.
"But that guy… Didn't you say he was a Transferee?"
Silvia also seed to recall that and felt relieved for a mont.
"Then, he might not be a magician."
"R-Right! He might just know Frannan, not close to him."
"But why did they say he's related to Libra?"
"Well, maybe he showed the Seal…"
The seal…
A seal engraved with a pattern was given to the guests invited by the respective magic tower and treated with utmost respect.
A token that guarantees the identity of the seal's holder, even if sothing bad happens.
"…"
"…"
"Wine."
"Huh? B-But drinking in broad daylight…"
"It isn't for ! I need it to knock on that door!"
"But will they open it…?"
"Agh! Albert!"
Albert covered his head.
Castrang began moving north along the tracks.
